Hello. Have some adware that no anti-malware can seem to get rid of. Managed to clean up all browsers except Firefox. Resorting to hijackthis analysis. Many thanks.

Log looks fine, other than not sure what this one is:
O2 - BHO: SecureWebBHO - {D3C24E2B-C820-4492-9B69-11BF7163F998} - C:\Program Files (x86)\Jelbrus Secure Web\jsie.dll

Is that something you use? If not, then look into uninstalling it from Control Panel.

Have you ran a scan with Malwarebytes Antimalware yet? If not, please do that and post the log here.

Also, check your Search Engines and Add-Ons/Plug-Ins for FireFox. As well as the proxy settings for FF (under Options -> Advanced -> Network -> under Connection click Settings...). Make sure its set to either "No Proxy" or "Use System Settings" and verify under Control Panel -> Internet Options -> Connections -> LAN Settings that no proxy is configured.
 
Thanks, carnageX. I definitely suspected that. It was not in list of installed programs, but did find a program files directory for it. I removed the directory and the hijackthis entry. Removing that did not fix firefox though. After fiddling around with plugins, resetting the browser, and reinstalling multiple times. I decided to remove all traces of mozilla and reinstall. Removing the users\appdata\ directories, registry keys, then reinstalling did the trick. No trace of the adware in network traces. Thanks for your help.
